The disclosure relates to compositions containing 1,1-di-carbonyl-substituted alkene compounds capable of preparing polymers having glass transition temperatures above room temperature. The present teaching also relates to polymers prepared 1,1-di-carbonyl-substituted alkene compounds which exhibit glass transition temperatures of 60&#xb0; C. The disclosure also relate to methods for enhancing the glass transition temperatures of polymers prepared from 1,1-di-carbonyl-substituted alkene compounds.

Compositions containing 1,1-di-carbonyl-substituted alkene compounds for preparing polymers having enhanced glass transition temperatures

Disclosed are methods for the heterogeneous catalytic transesterification of compounds having one or more ester groups and groups reactive under transesterification conditions, such as 1,1-disubstituted alkene compounds, with alcohols or esters and novel compositions prepared therefrom. Further disclosed are novel compounds and compositions prepared as a result of the methods.

Heterogeneous catalytic transesterification of ester compounds with groups reactive under transesterification conditions

Disclosed are graft copolymers, compositions including graft copolymers, intermediate materials, and related methods, where the graft copolymer includes a first polymer component including a 1,1-disubstituted-1-alkene compound (preferably a methylene malonate compound) and is grafted to a second component. The resulting graft copolymer may be hydrophilic or water soluble. The second component preferably is a hydrophilic component.

Water absorbing or water soluble polymers, intermediate compounds, and methods thereof

Functionalized compounds including residues of one or more 1,1-disubstituted alkene compounds. Preferably the functionalized compound includes the residue of two or more 1,1-disubstituted alkene compounds, which are spaced apart. The functionalized compound may be produced by a transesterification reaction. The functionalized compounds may be employed in a polymerizable composition and may be used to prepare new polymers, (for example by reacting the alkene group).

Polymer and other compounds functionalized with terminal 1,1-disubstituted alkene monomer(s) and methods thereof
